I have a few self-imposed missions this weekend that involve me searching the greater Memphis area for a few must-have holiday items.

Just in case you haven't been following some of my Twitter updates, I have to find a pair of simple, but jumbo earmuffs! I have been looking for over a week now and I am getting uber fed up! Plus, I need to find a buy a new Christmas tree that's about 6-7 ft, full, and NOT pre-lit! What's up with the unwanted abundance of pre-lit trees. I get it, saves money on having to buy light, but what if the lights stop working? Well, then I am going to be stuck with a tree full of lightless light and have to add working lights with "unemployed" lights.

Okay, my ranting is over and my mission starts TONIGHT and will hopefully be over my Sunday night. Look out Garden Ridge and ever Target in and near Memphis. So, here a few clik-worthy links and shopping info to get you through the weekend!
